DUE (ADVERB): meaning and examples
Hello again, everyone. Happy Friday to you.
In the last few Daily Vitamins, we have seen DUE used as a preposition and an adjective. Today we're going to look at its meaning and use as an ADVERB.
Today's word is: due (adverb)
It means: directly toward the south, north, east or west.
Example 1: The campsite is about 5 miles due north of Manteca. It's very easy to find; you can't miss it!
Example 2: The farm is about 25 kilometres due east of Tarragona.
⇒ To get a bit of writing practice in English, I encourage you to write your own sentence with DUE as an adverb. You can post your sentence to one of our social media sites (Facebook or Bluesky) and we will give you feedback about your writing ASAP.
We'll be back on Monday with another lesson.
Have a great day and a wonderful weekend!
